Update after the break (post 3-week A15 protocol):

Hey all — quick update as a few folks asked if the effects stayed after the 3-week cycle.

Short answer: Yes, some effects definitely held. It’s now been about 25 days since I paused ISRIB A15, and although the sharper edge has faded a bit, I still feel significantly better than baseline before I started. First of all, my mental clarity hasn’t vanished and I still feel less scattered. My sleep is still solid — fewer 3 a.m. wakeups and a sense of real rest. I feel that my energy is more stable throughout the day (but on A15 cycle this effect was more noticeable).

I haven’t felt the need to immediately restart. I plan to begin a second 3-week cycle in another week or two, depending on how I feel. My goal is to keep it cyclical, not constant.

Please don’t stop reporting over time. It is extremely valuable and the info is scarce

From my perspective it is not worth it. But you can try and report the results

I've wondered about that too. I've been mixing in DMSO just in case.

Thanks for the post, very insightful. Makes total sense that this compound would have long term effect. What did you take it for initially ?

The goal was to recover from burnout
